Ep 03 | The Lords OG

Endtime Weekly

Welcome back to another episode of Endtime Weekly! With your host Dom: and today in Episode 3 “THE LORD’S OG,” we’re venturing into one of the most intense and graphic sections of the Book of Hosea—Chapters 11 to 14. Get ready to confront the raw, poignant message of God’s relentless love and yearning for His people, alongside a powerful call to repentance and a promise of restoration. I see Hosea as a vivid tapestry woven with threads of grace, judgment, and hope—elements that resonate deeply in our lives today. So grab your Bibles, lean in, and let’s unearth that GOLD!

In today's show summary Dominic will walk the audience through chapters 11 to 14 of the Book of Hosea, focusing on God's unwavering love and the urgent call for repentance. The stark imagery includes the haunting scene of a mother, clutching her pregnant belly in anguish as her child is violently stripped away—a visceral representation of the brutal consequences of Israel's rebellion and idolatry.

Later in this episode Dominic will also role play to bring this story to you at home so you can imagine what it would look like when the day of judgement comes for our City of Sydney!

Warning: The content we’re about to explore contains intense and disturbing imagery that may be unsettling for some listeners.

We’ll be discussing themes of violence, suffering, and the devastating consequences of rebellion, particularly as depicted in Hosea 13. If you feel that this might be triggering or distressing for you, I encourage you to take care of yourself and, if needed, step away for a moment. Here at Endtime Weekly: Your well-being is important, and it’s perfectly okay to set boundaries around what you’re ready to hear.

Imagine standing in the heart of Sydney, bustling with life, laughter, and the vibrant energy of city life. The sun shines brightly, people move about, and the city feels alive. But then, the atmosphere shifts. An ominous tension fills the air as whispers of chaos begin to ripple through the streets. You hear the shouts—urgent, desperate. A crowd gathers, eyes wide with fear and disbelief. You push through, heart racing, to see what’s happening. And then you witness it: a scene that shakes you to your core.

In the distance, the sounds of sirens wail, piercing the air, drowning out the everyday hum of city life. You see a family—parents frantically searching for their children, faces etched with panic. A woman clutches her pregnant belly, eyes darting as if seeking shelter from an unseen storm. You can’t comprehend the chaos. The news reports tell of an uprising, of people rebelling against a system that once seemed stable. The atmosphere grows heavier as you realize what the consequences of that rebellion have brought upon your community.

Dominic (reflecting):
This isn’t just a distant tragedy; it’s unfolding right before your eyes. The words from the ancient text echo in your mind: “The people of Samaria must bear their guilt…”

You see a group of armed individuals, their intentions unclear, their faces shadowed. The scene escalates. You hear cries—terrifying, gut-wrenching. The brutality of the situation unfolds: a mother’s scream as her child is swept away, the horror of the innocent caught in the crossfire. The rawness of it hits you like a tidal wave. You feel sick, a mix of fear, anger, and heartbreak. The visceral imagery from the scriptures resonates deeply: “Their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open.” It feels like a nightmare come to life, a horrific echo of what happens when a society turns away from its core values, its sense of morality.

You witness a moment that’s both tragic and profound—a glimpse into the depths of human suffering. It’s not just the physical devastation that strikes you; it’s the emotional and spiritual fallout. Families shattered, futures stolen, hope obliterated.

Dominic (in reflection):
Standing there, in the heart of Sydney, you can’t help but question: What has led us to this? The distractions of modern life, the idols of success and materialism, have blinded so many to the deeper truths that bind us together.

You feel an urgent call to action, a desire for restoration and healing amidst the chaos. The weight of witnessing such pain ignites a fire within you—a longing for your community to remember its roots, to turn back to compassion, to unity, and to the values that truly matter.

As the chaos unfolds, you realize the path ahead is fraught with challenges, but the hope for redemption is palpable. It begins with each individual choice, a collective decision to return to love, to faith, and to each other.

“Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God!” Your sins have been your downfall!

This isn’t just a gentle whisper; it’s a rallying cry that shatters complacency and ignites a fire in the heart! He knows the pain of their rebellion, the devastation of their choices, yet His desire for reconciliation burns brighter than any sin they’ve committed.

In this moment, we see the relentless pursuit of a God who longs to embrace His people, to heal their wounds, to restore what has been lost. The imagery of dawn here isn’t just poetic—it’s revolutionary! It signals the end of despair, the promise of renewal, and the undeniable truth that grace is always within reach, no matter how far we’ve strayed.

This is a divine invitation to rise from the ashes of our failures and step into the light of a new beginning. Are you ready to accept it?

As the episode unfolds, listeners are encouraged to confront their own waywardness and consider the transformative power of turning back to God. Join us for this poignant exploration of love, judgment, and the promise of renewal, even in the face of profound anguish.
